This one-day class will take the participants into the clinical relevance of the Shao Yin conformation. We will begin by learning the physiology of the Shao Yin and it’s relationship with the other conformations. From here the practitioner will learn to be clear as to how to diagnose a Shao Yin patterns. This leads directly to treatment options. We will use case studies from our predecessors as well as from Sharon’s practice to illustrate the breath of use of the Shao Yin.
